Hi, my plant haven't even sprouted out of the soil yet and my 6500k light went out today, I only have 1 Conserv-Energy 13W 120VAC 60HZ 210MA in my box, about 4 inches above the plant. My question is, would I be ok for atleast another week with just this 1 light? It's in a pretty small box that seems well lighten up.

Plants only need mild light when they first sprout...a little warmth and some window sunlight will be fine for the first few days untill it get's above ground.

It should b ok for the first week or so. With only 13 watts, i think you can risk leaving at 2-3 inches from the plant.

Will do once I get money.

Basically what I will need is 1 new light, some nutes and more soil. I am growing in a box, so I plan to veg it for a shorter time, and flower it early. I really don't want a huge plant, something that would give around 5-8g's Id be happy with
